TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a 12-membered ring macrolide compound useful as a medicament, preparation thereof and use thereof.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Compounds having cytotoxicity have been used as antitumor agents, and many screenings have been carried out using cytotoxicity as an index. As a result, most of pre-existing antitumor agents give affection to cancer cells and simultaneously to normal tissues in which a proliferation of cell is active, for example, to bone marrow, intestine epithelium and the like. Thus, the improvement of QOL of patients has not been sufficiently accomplished yet.

Further, although it can be expected that treatments by the antitumor agents are rather effective for leukemia, it cannot be always said that they are effective for solid cancer. Therefore strong demands have been made to provide antitumor agents that are effective for solid cancer and are highly safe.

Screenings for fermentation products of microorganism have been carried out using the cytotoxicity in vitro as an index, expecting that they might also be used as antitumor agents. Many compounds having cytotoxicity have been found, however, most of them show cytotoxic activities only in vitro, and few compounds of them show antitumor activities in vivo, and very few compounds exhibit effectiveness for solid cancer.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

It is the object of the present invention to find out compounds which show antitumor activity not only in vitro but also in vivo and have antitumor activities for solid cancer from fermentation products of microorganism or derivatives thereof.

It is considered that tumorgenesis of a normal cell is caused by mutation of a gene in the cell occurs and an abnormal gene is expressed. Accordingly, the present inventors have made intensive investigations based on the inference that the growth of a tumor cell can be suppressed by changing the gene expression of the tumor cell, namely, the growth of the tumor cell can be controlled by changing the gene expression of oncogene or tumor suppressor gene, or by changing the gene expression involved in cell cycle. The present inventors have considered that a compound changing of the gene expression, in particular, a compound suppressing VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) production at a hypoxic condition could suppress angiogenesis by a tumor and has an antitumor activities for solid cancer. Then, they carried out screening for fermentation products of microorganism and derivatives thereof using the VEGF production by U251 cell under hypoxic stimulation as an index. As the results, the inventors have found out novel physiologically active compounds, 12-membered ring macrolide compounds, named 11107 and analogues thereof which suppress the VEGF production at a hypoxic condition in vitro, and further suppress the growth of solid tumor cells in vivo.

The present inventors have further found that 1107D among the 11107 analogues is stable even in an aqueous solution, and that compounds obtained by chemical modifications of 11107D (hereinafter, these are referred to as 11107D derivatives) inherit the property of stability in an aqueous solution from 11107D and inhibit the growth of solid tumor cells in vivo experiments in much more degree. The present invention has been accomplished based on these findings.

As a related art of a 12-membered ring macrolide compound which is most structurally similar to the compounds of the present invention, a 12-membered ring macrolide compound FD-895 (JP-A 4-352783) represented by the formula (XIV):

is mentioned. The publication discloses that FD-895 has in vitro cell growth inhibitory activities against P388 mouse leukemia cell, L-1210 mouse leukemia cell and HL-60 human leukemia cell in RPM-1640 medium (column 6, Table 2). However, it has been reported that FD-895 did not show antitumor activities in an in vivo experiment using P388 mouse leukemia cell (Seki-Asano M. et al, J. Antibiotics, 47, 1395-1401, 1994).

In addition, FD-895 is unstable in an aqueous solution as described later and is expected to be inappropriate to mix with an infusion solution upon administration. Thus, it cannot be said that FD-895 has sufficient qualities as an antitumor agent.

2. Fermentation Method of Producing Microorganism

The physiologically active substance 11107D according to the present invention can be produced by inoculating the strain on a nutrition source medium and carrying out aerobic fermentation. The strain for producing the physiologically active substance 11107D is not limited to the above-mentioned strain, and any strain belonging to the genus Streptomyces and having an ability of producing 11107D can be used in the present invention.

The fermentation method of the above-mentioned microorganism is according to the general fermentation method of microorganism, but it is preferably carried out under aerobic conditions such as shaking culture or aeration-agitation fermentation using liquid medium. The medium used for culture may be a medium containing a nutrition source which can be utilized by microorganism belonging the genus Streptomyces, therefore all of various synthetic, a semi-synthetic medium, an organic medium and the like can be utilized. As the carbon source in the medium composition, there can be used a single or a combination of glucose, sucrose, fructose, glycerin, dextrin, starch, molasses, soybean oil and the like. As the nitrogen source, there can be used a single or a combination of organic nitrogen sources such as pharma media, peptone, meat extract, soybean powder, casein, amino acid, yeast extract and urea, and inorganic nitrogen sources such as sodium nitrate and ammonium sulfate. Additionally, for example, there can be added and used salts such as sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium carbonate, magnesium sulfate, sodium phosphate, potassium phosphate and cobalt chloride; heavy metal salts, vitamins such as vitamin B or biotin, if necessary. Further, when foaming is remarkable during culture, various defoaming agents can be appropriately added in the medium as necessary. When the defoaming agent is added, it is required to set at a concentration for not adversely affecting the production of an objective substance, and for example, the use concentration is desirably 0.05% or less.

The culture condition can be appropriately selected within the range at which the microbial strain grows well and can produce the above-mentioned substance. For example, the pH of a medium is about 5 to 9, and preferably nearby neutral in general. The temperature of fermentation is usually kept at 20° C. to 40° C. and preferably 28° C. to 35° C. The fermentation period is about 2 to 8 days, and usually about 3 to 5 days. The above-mentioned fermentation conditions can be suitably changed in accordance with the kind and property of microorganism used, external conditions and the like, and it is needless to say that an optimum condition can be selected. The physiologically active substance 11107D of the present invention which was accumulated in the cultured broth can be collected by usual separation procedures utilizing its property such as a solvent extraction method and an absorbing resin method.

The physiologically active substance 11107D can also be prepared, for example, by using a microorganism belonging to the genus Streptomyces (for example, Streptomyces sp. AB-1704 strain (FERM P-18999)) and using 11107B substance (the compound described in Example A4 of WO 02/060890, as shown in Referential Examples 6 to 10.

The step A1 is a step for preparing the compound of the formula (IA). This step is carried out by protecting the hydroxyl group(s) of 11107D.

The reaction for protecting the hydroxyl group(s) is carried out according to a procedure well known in organic synthetic chemistry, while being selected depending on the type of the protecting group.

Examples of the protecting group are 1-ethoxyethyl, tetrahydropyranyl, 1-methyl-1-methoxyethyl, 1-(2-chloroethoxy)ethyl, 1-methoxycyclohexyl, 4-methoxytetrahydropyranyl, 4-methoxytetrahydrothiopyranyl, 4-methoxytetrahydrothiopyranyl S,S-dioxide, methoxymethyl, methylthiomethyl, methoxyethoxymethyl, trichloroethoxymethyl, trimethylsilylethyl, trimethylsilylethoxymethyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, diethylisopropylsilyl, trimethylsilyl, triisopropylsilyl, methyl-di-tert-butylsilyl, diphenylmethylsilyl, benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, p-methylbenzyl, p-nitrobenzyl, p-chlorobenzyl and triphenylmethyl. All or part of the hydroxyl groups can be appropriately protected by these protecting groups.

For example, hydroxyl-protected derivatives protected by 1-ethoxyethyl, tetrahydropyranyl, 1-methoxycyclohexyl, 4-methoxytetrahydropyranyl, 4-methoxytetrahydrothiopyranyl or 4-methoxytetrahydrothiopyranyl-S,S-dioxide can be synthesized by treating 11107D with a corresponding vinyl ether such as ethylvinyl ether or dihydropyran in the presence of an acid. Examples of the acid are general acids including organic acids such as pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (PPTS), p-toluenesulfonic acid, camphorsulfonic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid or methanesulfonic acid; and inorganic acids such as hydrogen chloride, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. Among them, a preferred example is pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (PPTS), p-toluenesulfonic acid or camphorsulfonic acid. The solvent used in the reaction is not specifically limited, but an inert solvent which cannot easily react with a starting material is desirable. Examples of such solvents are ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, dioxane and dimethoxyethane; halogenated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and 1,2-dichloroethane; hydrocarbons such as hexane, benzene and toluene; ketones such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone; nitriles such as acetonitrile; amides such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyridone and hexamethylphosphoramide; and sulfoxides such as dimethyl sulfoxide, of which a preferred example is dichloromethane, chloroform or tetrahydrofuran. The reaction time is 10 minutes to 5 days and is preferably 1 day to 2 days. The reaction temperature is a temperature of −78° C. to heating under reflux and is preferably room temperature. The amounts of the vinyl ether and acid used in the reaction are 1 to 200 equivalents and 0.05 to 2 equivalents, and preferably 30 to 50 equivalents and 0.1 to 0.3 equivalent, respectively, to 11107D.

Such hydroxyl-protected derivatives can be synthesized by reacting a starting material with a chloride, bromide or trifluoromethanesulfonate of the respective protecting groups in the presence of a base. The base is a general organic base or inorganic base. Examples of the organic base are an aromatic base such as imidazole, 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine (the 4-dimethylaminopyridine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine and dimethylaminopyridine used in the present specification have the same meaning), pyridine, 2,6-lutidine or collidine; a tertiary amine such as N-methylpiperidine, N-methylpyrrolidine, triethylamine, trimethylamine, di-iso-propylethylamine, cyclohexyldimethylamine, N-methylmorpholine or 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene; a secondary amine such as di-iso-butylamine or dicyclohexylamine; an alkyllithium such as methyllithium or butyllithium; a metal alkoxide such as sodium methoxide or sodium ethoxide. Examples of the inorganic base are an alkali metal hydride such as sodium hydride or potassium hydride; an alkaline earth metal hydride such as calcium hydride; an alkali metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide; an alkali metal carbonate such as sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate or cesium carbonate; and an alkali metal hydrogen carbonate such as sodium bicarbonate. Preferred examples of the base for the protection of the hydroxyl group by a silyl protecting group are an aromatic base such as imidazole or 4-dimethylaminopyridine; and a tertiary amine such as triethylamine. The solvent used in the reaction is not specifically limited, but one which does not easily react with a starting material is desirable. Examples of such solvents are the above-mentioned inert solvents, of which a preferred example is tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane or N,N-dimethylformamide. The reaction time is 10 minutes to 3 days and is preferably 1 day to 2 days. The reaction temperature is a temperature of −78° C. to heating under reflux and is preferably −10° C. to 50° C. The amounts of the chloride, bromide or trifluoromethanesulfate and the base used in the reaction are 1 to 20 equivalents and 0.5 to 30 equivalents, preferably 1 to 15 equivalents and 0.5 to 20 equivalents, respectively, to 11107D.

The hydroxyl groups of 11107D can be selectively protected by selecting the reagent and equivalence thereof for use in the protection of the hydroxyl groups. For example, a compound in which the hydroxyl groups at the 3-position and 21-position are selectively protected can be obtained by carrying out the reaction at room temperature using chlorotriethylsilane, triethylamine and 4-dimethylaminopyridine in dichloromethane or using tert-butylchlorodimethylsilane and imidazole in N,N-dimethylformamide. In this procedure, for example, the hydroxyl group at the 3-position can be selectively protected by controlling the equivalence of chlorotriethylsilane or tert-butylchlorodimethylsilane. Further, it is possible that two or three of the four hydroxyl groups are protected by a silyl group, and then the other two or one hydroxyl group is protected by the above-mentioned ethoxyethyl or the like.

The step A2 is a step for preparing the compound of the formula (IIA). This step is carried out by converting the acetoxy group of the compound of the formula (IA) into the hydroxyl group by the treatment of a base in an inert solvent.

The reaction time is 10 minutes to 5 days and is preferably 30 minutes to 1 day. The reaction temperature is a temperature of −78° C. to heating under reflux and is preferably room temperature. The amount of the base used in the reaction is 1 to 10 equivalents and preferably 2 to 5 equivalents to the compound of the formula (IA).

The step A3 is a step for preparing the compound of the formula (IIIA). This step is carried out by treating the hydroxyl group of the compound of the formula (IIA) with a chloroformate derivative or carbonyldiimidazole in the presence of a base. Examples of the chloroformate derivative are 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate, phenyl chloroformate, 4-chlorophenyl chloroformate, 4-bromophenyl chloroformate and 2,4-dinitrophenyl chloroformate. Examples of the base are the above-mentioned organic bases and inorganic bases, of which, for example, diisopropylethylamine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine, triethylamine, pyridine, 2,6-lutidine or sodium hydride is preferably used. The solvent used in the reaction is not specifically limited, but a solvent that does not easily react with a starting material is desirable. Examples of such solvents are the above-mentioned inert solvents, of which, for example, tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane or N,N-dimethylformamide is preferably used. The amounts of the chloroformate derivative and base for use in the reaction are 1 to 10 equivalents and 1 to 20 equivalents, and preferably 1 to 5 equivalents and 1 to 10 equivalents, respectively, to the compound of the formula (IIA). The reaction time is 10 minutes to 30 hours and is preferably 1 to 4 hours. The reaction temperature is a temperature of −78° C. to heating under reflux and is preferably −10° C. to 50° C.

For the hydroxyl compound (IA) in which one to three of OR^(3A), OR^(6A), OR^(16A) and OR^(21A) have not been protected in the step A1, the hydroxyl groups can be converted into carbonic ester groups by the step A3. More specifically, the hydroxyl groups of the compound (IA) other than the hydroxyl group at the 7-position can be converted into carbonic ester groups by the same way as the hydroxyl group at the 7-position by treatment with a base and a chloroformate derivative in equivalents corresponding to the number of hydroxyl groups to be converted into carbonic ester groups.

The step A4 is a step for preparing the compound of the formula (IVA). This step is carried out by treating the carbonic ester of the formula (IIIA) with an amine (R^(N1)R^(N2)H) that can form a desired compound of the formula (I) in an inert solvent in the presence of a base or with the amine alone.

The reaction temperature is a temperature of −78° C. to heating under reflux and is preferably −10° C. to 50° C.

The hydroxyl compound in which one to three of OR^(3A), OR^(6A), OR^(16A) and OR^(21A) have not been protected in the step A1 can be converted into a derivative having a plurality of urethane structures by converting those hydroxyl groups into carbonic ester groups in the step A3 and further converting them into carbamoyloxy groups in the step A4.

The step A5 is a step for producing the compound of the formula (VA). This step is carried out by subjecting the urethane derivative of the formula (IVA) to a deprotection treatment mentioned below in an inert solvent. The deprotection reaction for the protecting groups of the hydroxyl groups varies depending on the type of the protecting group but is carried out by a method well known in organic synthetic chemistry.

For the respective hydroxyl group protected by, for example, 1-ethoxyethyl, tetrahydropyranyl, 1-methoxycyclohexyl, 4-methoxytetrahydropyranyl, 4-methoxytetrahydrothiopyranyl or 4-methoxytetrahydrothiopyranyl-S,S-dioxide, the deprotection reaction can be easily carried out by treatment with an acid in an inert solvent. Examples of the acid are the above-mentioned organic acids and inorganic acid, of which, for example, pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonic acid or camphorsulfonic acid is preferred. The solvent used in the reaction is not specifically limited, but a solvent that does not easily react with a starting material is desirable.

By a combination of the various protection methods for hydroxyl groups described in the step A1 and the various deprotection methods described in the step A5, the respective hydroxyl groups at the 3-position, 6-position and 21-position can be converted into urethane derivatives selectively. For example, a urethane derivative having a hydroxyl group at the 6-position can be synthesized by subjecting the hydroxyl group at the 6-position of the compound (IA) in which R^(3A), R^(16A) and R^(21A) are triethylsilyl groups to the step A3, the step A4 and the step A5 sequentially.

The selective modification of the hydroxyl group at the 3-position, 6-position or 21-position which is carried out by a combination of the protection and the deprotection procedures can also be applied to the other modification methods described below.

B. A Preparation for a Thiourethane Derivative

In the formula, R^(3A), R^(6A), R^(16A) and R^(21A) each represents the same group as defined above; R^(3E), R^(6E), R^(16E) and R^(21E) each represents a hydrogen atom, a protecting group or a group represented by the formula R^(N1)R^(N2)N—CS— (wherein R^(N1) and R^(N2) each represents the same group as defined above), provided that R^(3E), R^(6E), R^(16E) and R^(21E) do not concurrently represent hydrogen atoms; and R^(3F), R^(6F), R^(16F) and R^(21F) each represents hydrogen atom or a group represented by the formula R^(N1)R^(N2)N—CS— (wherein R^(N1) and R^(N2) each represents the same group as defined above).

In order to prepare reporter system reflecting transcription from VEGF promoter, VEGF promoter sequence was cloned, and inserted in secretory alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) vector to construct reporter vector.

PCR primers having the sequences described in Sequence Numbers 1 and 2 were designed based on VEGF cDNA (GenBank accession number: X62568) and a fragment having about 340 bp was obtained by carrying out PCR. Human genomic phage library (Human genomic library, Clontech Co.) was screened using this as a probe to obtain VEGF genomic DNA. The DNA was digested by EcoRI, and the resultant fragments were inserted in the EcoRI site of pUC18. Finally, pUC18-VEGFA containing about 5.4 kb of VEGF 5′ flanking region was obtained. The pUC18-VEGFA was digested by KpnI/NheI, VEGF promoter region of about 2.3 kb obtained was inserted in the multi cloning site KpnI/NheI of secretory alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) vector (Goto et al, Mol. Pharmacol., 49, 860-873, 1996), and thus, VEGF-PLAP vector was constructed.

The above-mentioned VEGF-PLAP vector was transfected in the U251 cell cultured in the DULBECCO-modified eagle medium (DMEM; manufactured by SIGMA Co., Ltd.) containing 10% fetal calf serum, and the cells were cultured in the presence of 1 mg/mL G418 (Merck Co.) to establish G418 resistant stable clone (U251/1-8 cell).

Res. 40, 35-39, 1994) and was a reporter system reflecting the transcription from VEGF promoter. The screening of the compound suppressing VEGF production which was induced by hypoxic stimulation was carried out below using the clone.

After culturing at 37° C. overnight in a CO₂ incubator (5% CO₂), 20 μL of the above-mentioned incubation solution containing the test compound diluted with 3-fold succession was added, and then they were incubated in a hypoxic (2% CO₂) incubator for 18 hours. With respect to the PLAP activity in the culture supernatants, 10 μL of the supernatants was added to 50 μL of 0.28 M Na₂CO₃—NaHCO₃ buffer solution (pH 10.0, 8.0 mM MgSO₄), and finally 50 μL of alkaline phosphatase substrate (LUMISTEIN, Genomescience Co.) was added. After reacting for one hour, the alkaline phosphatase activity of the PLAP was measured by detecting the chemical luminescence by a micro plate reader (Perkin-Elmer Co.). The PLAP activity under normoxia was set as 0%, the PLAP activity of cell which was treated under hypoxia was set as 100%, and the concentration suppressing the PLAP activity by 50% was set as the IC₅₀ value of PLAP.

As is evident from the above Pharmacological Test Examples, the compounds of the formula (I) according to the present invention especially suppress VEGF production by varying the gene expression and are expected to use as an antitumor agent, in particular, as a treating agent for solid cancer, a carcinoma metastasis suppressor, as well as an agent for treating diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis and anginoma. Further, as is evident from the toxicity test of Test Example 4, the compounds of the formula (I) show growth inhibitory activities in the WiDr human colon tumor model in such a dose as to not cause remarkable weight loss of the tested mice and are safe compounds. Accordingly, they are efficacious as an agent for preventing or treating a disease against which gene expression control is efficacious, a disease against which VEGF production suppressing activity is efficacious and a disease against which angiogenesis inhibiting activity is efficacious. The “preventing or treating” indicates either of preventing or treating, or both of them. More specifically, the compounds of the formula (I) of the present invention are effective as an antitumor agent, and in particular, as an antitumor agent and a carcinoma metastasis suppressor for solid cancer. As the solid cancer, for example, pancreatic cancer, gastric cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, kidney cancer, brain tumor, head and neck cancer, esophageal cancer, skin cancer, liver cancer, uterus cancer, cervix uteri cancer, urinary bladder cancer, thyroid cancer, testicular cancer, chorionic carcinoma, osteosarcoma, soft tissue sarcoma, and ovarian cancer may be proposed, of which a cancer such as colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancer or ovarian cancer is preferred. Further, they are also effective as an antitumor agent for leukemia. Further, they are also effective as an agent for treating hematoma. Furthermore, they are also effective as an agent for treating diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis and hematoma, which is based on VEGF production suppressing action. In addition, they are also effective as an agent for treating inflammatory diseases consisting of osteoarthritis, psoriasis and prolonged hypersensitivity reaction, and atherosclerosis.

When the compounds are prepared as an injection, a pH regulator, a buffer, a stabilizer, a solubilizer and the like are added to the main drug, if necessary, to prepare an subcutaneous, intramuscular, intra-articular or intravenous injection according to a conventional procedure.

When the compound is administered as a preventive or therapeutic agent for various diseases, it may be orally administered as tablets, powders, granules, capsules, syrups and the like, and may be parenterally or parenterally administered as a spray, a suppository, an injection, an external preparation or a drip. The dose remarkably varies according to the severity of symptom, age, the kind of liver disease etc., and approximately 1 mg to 100 mg per day for an adult is administered in general at one time or several times.

Conventional excipients are used at production of pharmaceuticals, and the pharmaceutical products are prepared by a conventional method. Namely, when a solid formulation for oral use is prepared, a filler is added to the main drug, and if necessary, a binder, a disintegrant, a lubricant, a colorant, a flavoring agent and the like are added thereto, and then tablets, coated tablets, granules, powders, capsules and the like are prepared. It is needless to say that sugar coating, gelatin coating or suitable coating may conducted on the tablet and granule, if necessary.

According to the present invention, the compounds of the formula (I) of the present invention suppress, in particular, VEGF production by varying the gene expression and show excellent antitumor activities in in vivo solid tumor models. Further, the compounds of the formula (I) of the present invention are stable in an aqueous solution and can provide, for example, an agent for treating cancer, in particular, an agent for treating solid cancer, a carcinoma metastasis suppressor, an agent for treating diabetic retinopathy, rheumatoid arthritis and angioma.
